Han Shan's Sword Unsheathed

Peak master Chongbi did not admit that imitating other people's handwriting was fraudulent, he insisted that it was a 'craft'.

How can it be cheating to make money with craftsmanship?

Under Qian Yuzhi's campaign, collecting a piece of 'Jianzun Calligraphy' has become a proof of the identity and status of a monk in the world, and it is also one of the entry thresholds for small and medium-sized sects and families to enter the upper class of the practice world.

"You don't even have a sword master calligraphy at home, how dare you have a big banquet?"

"What, the calligraphy in my hand is a fake? Come on, and buy another real one!"

When it came to the auction, 'Hengtong Juyuan' just let out rumors that this calligraphy and painting 'suspiciously looks like' the calligraphy and painting of Sword Master. All distinguished guests are asked to distinguish the authenticity from the fake by themselves, and be cautious about the bidding price.However, the real ones have never been photographed, and all of them are from the current master of Chongbi Peak.

In fact, if you think about it a little, you can understand that Ji Xiao retreats all day long to practice swords, or fights for major events in the world. How can he have the leisure to spread paper, study ink, write and paint?

To find out where the authentic works are, I’m afraid it should be Jixiao’s enlightenment book on cultivation for Meng Xueli——“Introduction to Taoism”, the inside page also has colorful illustrations drawn by Jixiao, including birds and beasts, famous mountains and rivers, which are lifelike and vivid. It shows the various states of the world.

But Meng Xueli himself didn't know. After listening to Qian Yuzhi's story, he immediately clapped his hands and applauded: "Yes, everyone is happy!"

Ji Xiao helplessly supported his forehead.

Qian Yuzhi saw that Meng Xueli responded positively, and the conversation became more intense: "You are worthy of being Brother Jixiao's Taoist companion. Other practitioners don't understand the beauty of me abandoning the sword to go into business, and they only scold me for playing with things and wasting my talent, but you can understand!"

Unlike most people in the practice world, he thought that Master Jian was bewitched by Meng Xueli and married a vulgar person, and the two were extremely incompatible.On the contrary, I feel that Meng Xueli is not afraid of criticism from the outside world, and dares to set up a feng shui formation of "getting rich, changing luck, and seeking peach blossoms", at least he is a real person, not a hypocrite.

Meng Xueli said with a smile: "The sages said, 'The world praises it without persuading it, and the world criticizes it without being discouraged'. As the name suggests, Brother Qian has already reached this state." Diligent, not depressed when criticized by everyone.

The two complimented each other, but Ji Xiao couldn't stand it.He coughed lowly, and gently pulled Meng Xueli's sleeve with the hand under the table: "Master..." He is a disciple now, and the elders don't talk too much, I just hope that the little Taoist companion understands what he means.

Meng Xueli patted the back of the boy's hand, thinking that he had a deep understanding: "It's not easy for you, Uncle Qian. It's even more difficult to keep a business than to start a business." You will keep your father's big business in the future.

He didn't speak clearly, and I believe the apprentice would understand.

Ji Xiao: "..."

Qian Yuzhi said, "Yes, maintaining a business is more difficult than starting a business. Now these businesses seem to be developing smoothly, but in fact they are in danger. If one step is not careful, one's body will be crushed and one's body will be destroyed forever."

Meng Xueli asked in surprise, "Why?"

Qian Yuzhi said: "Elder Meng, you have to be careful. You are not guilty, but you are guilty. You are the only heir to the sword master's legacy, and everyone knows that you have the principle of 'right and right'. If anything happens to you , Who will these properties belong to? I can't afford it. Maybe it belongs to the Hanshan Sword Sect, or maybe it belongs to the Supreme Elder with the highest seniority and deepest realm in Hanshan. No amount of money is enough to feed hundreds of people.”

Meng Xueli listened, her expression gradually serious, and she patted Jixiao's arm lightly.He wants to shield the apprentice from wind and rain until the apprentice grows up.

Qian Yuzhi spread his folding fan: "It's like a piece of fat meat. Others can see it but can't eat it. They salivate, but they are reluctant to destroy this piece of meat."

Meng Xueli watched his fans change: "Huh?"

Qian Yuzhi looked down and turned around quickly: "I'm sorry, I took the wrong one. A while ago, I was busy with things at the end of the year, so I got a little grumpy."

It turned out that this fan had two sides, on the front it said 'harmony makes money', but on the back it said 'none of your business'.

Really extreme, Meng Xueli thought.

Meng Xueli said: "It's such a huge property, I'm afraid it won't be well managed by others. You really like it, so you don't feel tired. What's the use of them?"

Qian Yuzhi smiled and said: "When the money reaches a certain level, what increases is only numbers, but the impact that comes with it is getting bigger and bigger. I am sitting in the northern Hanmen City and sending out a message talisman, which can make Yong'an City thousands of miles away The Qi Gathering Pill is out of stock, which can increase the price of animal skins in Qinghe City in the south overnight, they may not like the simple pleasure of earning and counting money, but they like this 'sense of control', do you understand?"

Meng Xueli was taken aback, thinking that I knew every word you said, and I didn't know what it meant when they were put together.It seems to be much more complicated than fighting and killing.

Ji Xiao saw that the Taoist couple's eyes were dull, and they fell into a cognitive blind spot, and said in a low voice: "Master, the mountain road is not easy to walk after sunset." It's time for us to say goodbye.

This was the first time he spoke a long sentence after entering the door.Qian Yuzhi turned his eyes to him, and suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up:

"You, the big disciple, have the body of an innate sword spirit. You were supposed to be the disciple of the head master or the grand elder, but you were ordered by senior brother Hu Si to worship you as a teacher and live in Changchun Peak, right?"

Meng Xueli thought that this was indeed the case in the eyes of outsiders, so she nodded.

"Do you know what people outside Hanshan say about you? They call you 'the illegitimate son of heaven' in private, because of your unique good luck!"——Rely on Taoist companions for the first half of your life, and apprentices for the rest of your life.

Meng Xueli rubbed his nose: "No, it's just a matter of luck." Before he joined Ji Xiao, his life was full of ups and downs, so he really can't say 'good luck'.I don't understand why the other party brought this up all of a sudden.

"Elder Meng, Ming people don't speak dark words. I want to sell the golden silk peach blossom trees in Changchun Peak in 'Hengtong Juyuan'!"

Qian Yuzhi smiled enthusiastically, as if he was facing a boy giving money: "For each twig sapling, I will pay you sixty high-grade spirit stones first, and then sell it at a reserve price of two hundred high-grade spirit stones. When I make money, Let's split the bill between three and seven, me three, you seven, how about it?" He pitied the young and weak Taoist sword master and had to take care of his apprentices, so the profit was very affordable.

Meng Xueli was taken aback: "No, everyone says it's vulgar. You won't be able to sell it at that time, and you will lose money!"

Qian Yuzhi laughed loudly: "They call you vulgar in their mouths, but they actually envy you in their hearts. They just hate others and laugh at others."

Meng Xueli: "I remember that even though golden silk peach blossoms are delicate, the market price is only ten high-grade spirit stones. If you want to sell them so expensively, who will buy them?"

"It's not the same, this is the golden peach blossom sapling from Changchun Peak, which was planted by Jian Zun and Taoist couple. Planting it in the courtyard is like living in Changchun Peak, which will let you feel the warmest and sweetest spring..." Qian Yu The star's eyes are shining, "The most important thing is that if you sincerely pray, you can get a bit of Meng Xueli's 'good luck'. From then on, you will get something for nothing. Among the peach blossoms in the sky, you will achieve a love affair that is alluring. When you After hearing this, do you want to buy it?!"

I don't buy it!Ji Xiao thought, this is too absurd.

He felt worried, fearing that Junior Brother Qian would spoil his little Taoist companion.

I only heard Meng Xueli say honestly: "But the matter of 'luck' is mysterious and unspeakable. How to get 'good luck'? People pay a lot of money to buy it back. If they find out that they have been cheated..." Will they come to smash the store?

Qian Yuzhi looked at him in shock: "It's not a lie, we won't guarantee that we will be able to transfer luck. Sincerity is good, look at the people who offer incense in the temple, not all of them are Buddhist practitioners, some people just ask for some comfort. The same For the same reason, customers who have bought a peach blossom tree have encountered two possibilities: transshipment or non-transportation, each accounted for [-]%. Those who transshipment will say that this thing is effective. Would you like to think about it carefully?"

Meng Xueli thought for a while, then nodded and agreed: "In this case, I have Brother Laoqian. My second disciple is named Yu Qishu. I will ask him to send saplings over three days later. Let's send [-] saplings first, if they can be sold ..." It happened that Yu Qishu was going to practice fighting skills in the peach blossom forest, and cut some twigs along the way.

Although the mountains of gold and silver left by Ji Xiao could not be eaten up in a few lifetimes, he also wanted to rely on himself to make money to support his family and his disciples!

At this time, Meng Xueli didn't know that many years later, the hypericum peach blossoms on Changchun Peak were regarded as the most precious treasures in the practice world, and they were hard to buy.

"Don't bother! When it sells well, I'm afraid I will give gifts to Elder Meng, please provide for my family alone." Qian Yuzhi thought thoughtfully, "Speaking of gifts, Master Sword is stored in 'Hengtong Juyuan' The jade box is said to be a gift for you, when does Elder Meng want to take it back?"

Meng Xueli was surprised: "What? What happened to my Taoist companion?"

Qian Yuzhi was even more surprised: "You don't know? Things have been kept here."

Meng Xueli was blessed to the heart, and said in a daze: "That's right, he said it."

He seems to have returned to the day Ji Xiao left.There was no moon in the sky, and the night shrouded Changchun Peak.Ji Xiao came to look for him by the pond, his black cloak fluttered in the wind, his face was like ice and snow.

"I have something for you, and wait for me to come back."

Then he never came back.

Qian Yuzhi: "Wait a minute."

He went out for a moment.Not long after, the steward who had just led the way knocked on the door, brought in an iron box, and left respectfully.

Seeing this, Ji Xiao rubbed his forehead again. After this day, he couldn't count how much helplessness he felt.

Three years ago, Hu Si said that Taoist couples should be given gifts for joining together.He made this one himself, but Meng Xueli had just recovered from a serious injury back then, and his body was weak, so it was not suitable for taking it.So it was stored at the foot of the mountain, and when Meng Xueli was able to go down the mountain, it was naturally time to use it.

As for what Meng Xueli thought, the gift he mentioned before leaving was another unfinished product.Two things are completely different.

After Ji Xiao thought about it, it wasn't a bad thing, the time for the little Taoist couple to get the one in front of them was just right.

Opening the iron box, Meng Xueli took out a white jade box about three feet long.The tentacles are delicate and warm, like a piece of warm jade.

He stroked the fine water cloud patterns on the box: "What's inside?"

Qian Yuzhi smiled narrowly, and answered in a low voice: "How could I open the gift between Taoist couples. Elder Meng, go back to the peak and open it again. Don't let me see anything I shouldn't see."

"Cough, cough, cough." Ji Xiao coughed violently, his cheeks flushed slightly.

Meng Xueli hurriedly got up and patted his back: "Stop the cloud, slow down."

After finishing speaking, he held up the jade box: "Senior Brother Qian, it's getting late, thank you for your hospitality, let's take our leave first."

Qian Yuzhi waved the fan of "Harmony Generates Wealth": "Walk slowly, walk slowly."
